I have been offered a guaranteed amount for the sale of my timeshare plus reimbursement of all bank wire transfers and fees related. (Originally, none were mentioned).
His name is Peter Williams and he is with A.E.M. Real Estate Company LLC. 22 West Washington Street Suite 1500 Chicago, Illinois 60602-1607 Tel: (312) 386-7747 Ext 6006 Fax: (312) 277-7516 www.aemrealestate.com info@aemrealestate. ComHe attached a Timeshare Purchase-Sale Guaranteed Contract in the amount of $36,600.00 USD (I paid $37,750. For it 2 years ago so it seemed reasonable).
He then set up an account with Elite Escrow, Inc. Park Place 5251 West 116th Place, Suite 200 Leawood, Kansas 66211 PH: 913 815-8429 & 8430 FAX: 800 566-6987 www.eliteescrowinc.com [email protected] who will send me the cheque upon closing.
They then asked me to send $950 USD to their Mexican agent for the title search which I did. Their Mexican agent is Global Vacation System S de RL de CV, Av. Real Acueducto 360 A Piso 5, Puerta de Hierro Zapopan Jalisco C.P. 45116.
Now a week later, they asked me to send to the same agent $2,562 USD to cover 7% fee explained as follows: "Because you are not Mexican citizens or Mexican Immigrants, are selling a timeshare located in Mexico, and are enjoying a profit, the Mexican government requires that you register as foreign investors". Should I sent it to them or try to send it directly to the Mexican government instead? A.E.M. Real Estate Company also wrote: "They now place a lien against the escrow account and property until and unless their Foreign Registration Fee is paid"... Is this possible? Should i pay it or walk away with a $995 loss? Do they (Mexican government) really now have a lean against my timeshare?
